Fishing was a bit slow this week.  I expect the moon tides this week, and abscence of the bait we were seeing last week greatly affected the fishing.  We had few fish weighed in Dick's Memorial Day Weekend Derby and it was not for lack of effort.  We had a large sign up this year and great weather, but few fish.  There is still a few hours left to weigh in fish, but it doesn't look hopeful.

My friend and I fished last night and with only two hits in two hours we walked away frustrated because we had great conditions.  We had a good tide, very little weed, but no fish.  I'm also hearing reports that many of those bluefish that were around last weekend have disappeared, along with the bait. 

I'm hoping for a better week this week and I'm sure the Rod and Gun Club is hoping for a better weekend because they are hosting their fly fishing Catch and Release tournament this June 4-6.
